Calculate the area of an irregular plot using the Trapezoidal Rule, given the offsets are 2 m, 4 m, 3 m, and 5 m at an equal spacing of 1 m.
$10.5 m^2$
To calculate the area of an irregular plot using the Trapezoidal Rule, we first need to understand the formula for this method of numerical integration. The Trapezoidal Rule is used to estimate the area under a curve by dividing the total area into trapezoids rather than rectangles.
The formula for calculating the area using the Trapezoidal Rule is:
\(A = \frac{d}{2} \times [(f_0 + f_n) + 2(f_1 + f_2 + \ldots + f_{n-1})]\)
where:
Given the offsets are 2 m, 4 m, 3 m, and 5 m, and the spacing \(d\) is 1 m, let's apply the formula:
\(A = \frac{1}{2} \times [(2 + 5) + 2(4 + 3)]\)
\(A = \frac{1}{2} \times [7 + 2 \times 7]\)
\(A = \frac{1}{2} \times [7 + 14]\)
\(A = \frac{1}{2} \times 21\)
\(A = 10.5 \, m^2\)
Thus, the estimated area of the irregular plot using the Trapezoidal Rule is \(10.5 \, m^2\).
The correct answer is $10.5 \, m^2$.
The sides of the rectangle are in the ratio 8 : 10 and its perimeter is 90 cm. The area of this rectangle is:
Find the number of bricks, each measuring 24 cm × 12 cm × 8 cm, required to construct a wall 24 m long, 8 m high, and 60 cm thick if 10% of the wall is filled with mortar?
If the sum of lengths of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram is 12 cm, then the perimeter of the parallelogram is:
From a rectangular cardboard sheet of length 46 m and breadth 8 m, three circular plates of radii 3 m, 2 m and 1 m are cut out. If the area of the remaining part of the cardboard sheet is equal to the area of a square, then find the length of each side of the square (use π = 22/7).
In a workshop calculation, you need to find the side of a square base with an area of 64 cm2. What is the correct length?
